"However, when the switch is opened, the coil's inductance responds to the decrease in current by inducing a voltage of reverse polarity, in an effort to maintain current at the same magnitude and in the same direction."

It is basic 12th physics that the induced EMF flows in the direction that opposes the change that produced it.
